16. Nanostructured surfaces created by the interactions of dendrimers and oppositely charged amphiphiles
Sammanfattning : The research described in this thesis aims to understand the interactions between cationic poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers and small oppositely charged amphiphiles at the solid-liquid and air-liquid interfaces in relation to the bulk solution behavior. There is high interest in PAMAM dendrimers because they are well-defined polymers with a hierarchical architecture which makes them promising materials as nanocapsules and gene vectors. LÄS MER
17. Polyelectrolytes on Surfaces and their Complexes with Surfactants, Thermodynamics versus kinetics
Sammanfattning : The interfacial properties of polyelectrolytes, mainly cationic with various content of amphiphilic groups, and their complexes with an oppositely charged surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), have been investigated using time-resolved ellipsometry. This thesis focuses on the kinetics and reversibility aspects of polymer adsorption and the control of the adsorption by regulating the electrostatic interactions. LÄS MER
18. Nanofabrication of Single Electron Transistors and Evaluation of Miniature Biosensors
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with miniaturization in two different fields: electronics and biosensing. The first part deals with fabrication and measurements of two nanoscale structures - a self-assembled single electron transistor and a (potential) single junction device. LÄS MER
19. Adsorption and Ordering of Surface Active Molecules and Particles at Solid Interfaces and in the Bulk
Sammanfattning : Factors that influence the process of adsorption and order of dilute and concentrated systems of molecules and particles are explored in this thesis. The results are based largely on neutron scattering techniques. LÄS MER
20. Interfacial Properties of Lipid Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles
Sammanfattning : Lipid liquid crystalline nanoparticles are studied for their potential as biocompatible carriers for pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic applications. Their potential as delivery vehicles is due to their nanometer size, their controllable structure and physical properties and their large carrying capacity of a wide range of molecules. LÄS MER
